Murray possessed three images of animal sadism in the most serious A category. They involved animals being hurt for sexual pleasure.
A total of 1,682 images were unique. Depute fiscal Jason Bell said cybercrime experts discovered Murray had searched for bestiality and pre- teen youngsters as he binged on abusive images.
Mr Bell said pictures s h o w e d “e x t r e m e pornography”.
The content was found on two hard drives and two computers seized from his home in 2015.
